Description

Warrior Blade: Rastan Saga Episode III is the third game in the Rastan series. The game differs from the previous installments, as it is now a fantasy themed beat'em up, more similar to titles like Golden Axe or Knights of the round. A player (up to two simultaneously) can choose out of three characters - barbarian bandit Rastan, hireling Dewey, and female thief Sophia. Each character has his own weapon (sword, dagger and whip), but the gameplay is roughly the same - going right, advancing and trying to beat all enemies. There are some genre untypical moments, like riding a horse and flying on a dragon. Sometimes it's possible to choose a path, making the game non-linear.
